Sheet Metal and Press Shops
Sheet metal and press shops use heavy blanks sheets and dies that must be moved and rotated at loading tables, which is exactly the function ball transfer units and ball decks are designed for. The components on this site are the parts used to build these transfer points rather than a complete system.
Pain Points on the Line
- Heavy blanks that cannot be moved easily because ball transfer units do not match the table height or load capacity
- Rotating a die by hand is difficult when the ball deck surface is not smooth or the balls are not aligned
- Custom transfer points assembled from mismatched components that do not run at the same height
- Ball decks that wear quickly in high-use areas due to lack of hardened or stainless steel balls
- No standard way to integrate ball transfer units into existing press shop loading tables
What Buyers Need
- Ball transfer units with a load rating that matches the weight of the blanks or dies
- Customized ball transfer units that fit the existing table mounting dimensions
- Ball decks with a surface material suitable for heavy steel contact and frequent handling
- Units with ball diameter and mounting hole size matching the shop's existing setup
- One supplier for all ball transfer units and decks used in the press shop
Typical Scenarios
